Principal Radar Engineer, Space

What you'll do

• Architect and implement RF sensing technologies for space-based radar payloads and multi-domain platforms.
• Conduct system-of-systems analysis to decompose mission requirements into radar subsystem specifications and link budgets.
• Develop and validate advanced radar techniques, waveforms, signal processing algorithms, and detection/tracking technologies.
• Create and drive consensus on internal technical roadmaps for space radar capabilities.
• Engage directly with DoD and IC customers to translate operational needs into technical requirements.
• Provide technical leadership to program management and business development teams to support strategic decision-making.
• Mentor and grow team members in radar theory, space systems engineering, and best practices.

What we're looking for

• MS or PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or a related technical field (advanced degree preferred).
• 10+ years of hands-on experience in radar systems engineering, including hardware, algorithms, or software development.
• Proven track record in a technical leadership role developing high-performance defense radar systems.
• Strong expertise in radar architecture, waveform design, radar modes, and system-level modeling.
• Understanding of radar antenna development, technology, and integration.
• Proficiency in MATLAB and Python for radar simulation and analysis.
• Prior experience supporting DoD or IC programs.
• Active U.S. Top Secret or TS/SCI clearance.
